I did my return through Turbo Tax and asked me to mail out the form once it was done to the Department of Treasury Internal Revenue Service at Austin TX 73301 but it doesn't give me a P.O. Box number. I've been tracking my package and says it got to the Post Office and is available for pickup but who will pick it up? I want to know the P.O. box or exact address it needs to get to.

Where to MAIL (Send) your tax return. It depends on which state you live in and which forms, you can find the address here: https://www.irs.gov/uac/where-to-file-paper-tax-returns-with-or-without-a-payment Click on your State and the different Forms and address where they should be sent are displayed.  The address usually is Different if you Owe or are Receiving a Refund.

I sent my amended return certified mail to the IRS in Austin, TX on April 2nd. I mailed it from the Dallas area which is a 3 hour drive from Austin. On April 3rd tracking showed it was picked up in Dallas. April 5th tracking showed it arrived at a Austin postal facility. April 9th tracking showed it was in route to final destination. Today is May 13th and the postal service tracking has had no updates since April 9th.

 

I decided to try sending it again on May 6th. Tracking shows it was picked up on May 7th in Dallas area and is currently “in route”.  Again today is May 13th and there have been no tracking updates since May 7th.

 

This is all very odd since it’s not like my letter is traveling across the country. I understand it taking 12 weeks or whatever to process once they receive it but the postal service should be able to take a letter to a location that is a three hour drive in less then a freaking month. 

im planning to contact the post master for the dallas area and the Austin area. I’m concerned that since these letters were addressed to the IRS that postal workers k ow they likely contain personal info (social security, name/addy etc) and are stealing the info this the letters never arrive.

It depends.

 

It may also be due to the fact that the IRS is not processing paper filed returns due to Covid-19 social distancing.  

 

Please see the link below for updates to the departments that you can currently contact within the IRS.

You can try contacting your postal service as well if you have not received confirmation of the tracking that you have already paid for.

Hello OP, 

 

My USPS tracking changed from "Available for pickup" to " Additional steps - Redelivery Requested" and they will return my packet on July 16th, if no one collects it. And I cannot even enter the new address as it is not allowed for IRS. Is that normal. Pretty worried about that

I opened an enquiry with USPS for my tracking number and got this response. Guess they just stopped scanning 😕😕

Hope it helps.

@3862495 Are you referring to your 2020 tax return? this is an old thread for 2019 tax returns.
